For Rachel Carson, March 17, 2012

Water makes its way, through fields, hills and mountains
Water makes its way, it has its ups and downs
Water makes its way, it ends up in the oceans
Water makes its way, it really gets around.

I must make my way, no matter what life throws me
I must make my way, must do the best I can
I must make my way, my faith and hope they guide me
I must make my way, together we all must stand.

We must make our way, together up the mountain
We must make our way, rememb’ring those before
We must make our way, rememb’ring those still coming
We must make our way, draw strength at the ocean’s shore.

Rachel Carson lived and worked for Earth and people.
Rachel Carson loved the sea and all that lives.
We must learn from her and never lose our loving,
Loving Mother Earth with all that we can give.

Water makes its way, through fields, hills and mountains
Water makes its way, it has its ups and downs
Water makes its way, it ends up in the oceans
Water makes its way, it really gets around.
